10-Free-Traffic-Methods-That-Still-Work-Today
If you have a website you need traffic and getting those
visitors to your site isn't always easy.
There are a number of ways that you can drive traffic to your website
and sometimes it is helpful if you can be a little creative with your traffic
generation. Let's take a look at ten
amazing ideas for traffic building.
1.
Social photo sharing sites are a great way to drive traffic to your
website. The most popular photo sharing
site is Flickr. The idea is to have your
website and Flickr working in unison to draw traffic to your site. Whenever you write a new post on your blog
you can add a link to the Flickr website.
When you share photos on Flickr you can add good tags to attract members
to use your photos. Your site will be
working in conjunction with Flickr to bring you traffic.
2.
Social bookmarking sites are another great option for building traffic. You can make friends with people on social
bookmarking sites that share the same interests as the topic of your website. Include a link to your website in your
profile information and you can also share your website link. There are a few different social bookmarking
sites and they work in different ways and it is recommended to use a variety of
these sites. Promoting your site on
social bookmarking sites can make your site very popular as long as you don't
spam these sites.
3.
The next traffic building method is blogging commenting. Find other blogs in the same niche as your
website and leave comments. When you use
blog commenting you should always make a comment that is relevant to the post
topic and be informative. If you don't
leave relevant comments then your comment may be viewed as a spam comment and
will be deleted. If your comment is
informative then people who read your comment may click on your link and visit
your website.
4.
Forum marketing is our next method for driving traffic. Join forums within your niche and make
relevant forum posts. Have a link to
your website in your signature so every time that you make a post on the forum
you are creating a backlink to your website.
Never spam forums or you will soon have your account deleted and your
time will be wasted. When you give informative
posts then other forum members are more likely to click on the link in your
signature and visit your website.
5.
Add extensions to your site such as a good theme and widgets. There are many additions that you can use to
enhance your site and make it interesting.
Your visitors are more likely to come back and visit your site again if
it is interesting. If your site is
boring and doesn't give good information then you will lose a lot of visitors.
6.
Use word of mouth marketing by letting your friends know about your website and
ask them to spread the word. You can
also ask your friends to place a link to your site on their websites if they
have a website of their own and by using their visitors and contacts you can
increase your own website traffic.
7.
Contact other websites and ask them to put your website link on their
website. You can either offer to pay for
a link to be placed on their site or you can offer a link exchange.
8.
Do some article marketing to build up backlinks to your website and if you
write interesting and informative articles then your article readers will click
on your link and visit your website.
9.
Add some podcasts to your site to expand your exposure. People love video and audio so adding some of
these to your website will make it more interesting and entice more visitors.
10.
Submit your blog feed to blog site directories and this will help feed traffic
from other sites to your site.
A website needs traffic to be successful but traffic
building isn't just about building traffic but also about giving your visitors
what they want when they reach your site.
By providing good quality content on your website your visitors are more
likely to return.
